Monster Stencils

monster stencils, monster kids crafts, monster valentines
Making monsters is fun, fun, fun!
The best part....gluing googly eyes, as many as you like, wherever you want.
You will need:
monster shapes (we searched for "monster stencils")
paper
black paint
paint brushes
tape
glue
googly eyes

Begin by printing and cutting out monster shapes. Be sure to use monsters with simple lines.

Tape the monster shape onto the paper. Paint from the edges out.

Gently remove the monster shape while paint is still wet to avoid dried paint acting as a glue.
The best part......glue on the eyes! As many and wherever you like.
We added hearts to make them Valentines.

  1. Thank you!. The child who completed these is a 7 year old boy not typically interested in "crafts" or Valentine's. He chose monsters as a theme and then had a really great time with every stage of this project. This project offers many opportunities to strengthen fine motor skills.
